Vegan protesters storm steakhouse, shout at customers

A group of vegans thought they would further their cause by storming a Toronto steakhouse, peppering a hostess with questions and shouting at customers.

Instead, even those on the left are ridiculing their tactics.

Several protesters from a group identified as “Direct Action Everywhere Toronto” by the Huffington Post entered The Keg Mansion steakhouse in Toronto, Canada. Video shows the lead agitator perusing a menu near the entrance of the restaurant.

“So, I’m just wondering, I don’t see any dog meat here,” the protester said to the hostess trying to wait on restaurant patrons. The hostess stood stone-faced, either unamused or not understanding how this would could be so stupid.

“That’s the latest thing. I thought this was a meat restaurant,” the agitator said.

“It’s steak,” the hostess replied.

“It’s steak, but steak is made out of cows. And I see you have chicken which is obviously chicken. And I see you’ve got pigs here but you don’t have dogs here. So I’m wondering why you don’t have dog.”

The hostess shrugged her shoulders, probably wishing she called in sick this night so she didn’t have to deal with this moronic protester.

The woman handed back the menu and said, “Where’s the dog meat? I mean, you’ve got the other meats, I don’t understand it. Are you ever going to have dog meat here? Why not? I want to know!”

In the words of one Reddit user, the “group of assholes” then went to the center of the restaurant and began shouting at the confused customers.

The woman proceeded to rant about Cecil the Lion, a chicken the woman knew “who had a unique personality” (let that sink in for a moment) that likes “corn, watermelon and hugs,” while her comrades walked around with printed signs reading, “It’s not food. It’s violence.”

In between snickers and smirks, the customers appeared to be unmoved by the protesters’ tactics.

Jenny McQueen, one of the protest organizers, tells Vice.com: “We’re trying to cause a little disruption in society. Society normalizes violence against animals, unknowingly a lot of the time. People eat meat, buy meat from the supermarket. They don’t realize what they’re eating or what they’re buying was a thinking and feeling animal. You know, pigs feel pain just like cats and dogs.

“You’re wondering why we don’t have dog on the menu?? -it’s because we’re a STEAKHOUSE, not the Korean buffet down the street!”

"So I’m wondering why you don’t have dog.

Response: "This is a steakhouse, not a Vietnamese or Indonesian Restaurant."

So they bring up Cecil the Lion. So what do lions eat? Do these people think that nature is one big Disney cartoon?

“Vegan protesters storm steakhouse, shot at by customers”

That would have made a better headline!

“Well - we seen these creatures come flooding in. White, pasty...sickly looking things. Scrawny arms and legs flappin’ around and all. And the NOISE! Heck - we thought they were zombies or something!”

Perhaps one or two of those nice thick heavy pepper grinders could provide a clue as to the opinion of the customers as to "why they don’t have dog."

My dear ole Dad always told me that it takes all kinds of people to make a world.

That’s certainly true, but the dim school teachers are not helping…….

There’s something missing.

That they were all arrested.

Guess that’s missing because it didn’t happen.

About 10 years ago, PETA protested at a KFC in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I knew the manager there. He reported that once the news got out that PETA was protesting, he dang near ran out of chicken he was so busy.

Also one enterprising customer ate a drum stick and then pelted a person in a chicken suit. Chicken suit called the police to report an assault and it was all the responding police officer could do to choke back his laughter. Apparently the officer drove away in tears. Charges were not filed.

Can we expect to see these same people at Planned Parenthood protesting vivisection of human infants?

I think not.

I think that at my Texas Roadhouse there would be fisticuffs over stupid hippies shouting at me and my meat-eating fellow Hoosiers, spoiling our digestive processes.

It looks as though restaurants are going to have to start hiring armed guards too. The liberal ‘RAT zombies are on the rampage. Lots of tantrums.

They harassed a female server. They are spineless cowards.

Korean restaurants don’t cook dogs. That is an old custom in Korea itself, which is fading out.
